    :DInspired by joe soaps thred about stealing election posters.....

    When i was in my collage days (19) my fella was also in the same collage as me, I was going through my "beer mats on the wall" phase.

    Was out in the club one night and stole a "no smoking sign" from the loo, then the next week there was a sign on the door saying "The condom machine is out of order" so i took that(looked so funny on my bathroom door":D

    So fess up What posters or signs have you stolen from nightclubs?

    None. Sounds like a sh*t hobby, TBH.

    A sign off the toilet door saying "It only takes one sperm, use contraception" Can't find it now though..

    Also went through a phase of stealing no smoking signs, had about 20. I had a very exciting life as a teen...

    they should of thought you how to spell college in "collage". Saying that, the "10e entry fee" one is always worth a knick at the end of a night.

    Theft is bad. Being a crusty student is no excuse for it. For shame.

    I wouldn't mind getting Mordeth ossified, purely so that I could bring him somewhere secluded and shear everything above his shoulders.

    Thank you, that mistake always irks at me.

    I dont think I've ever taken much from a club, maybe a shot glass here or there.
    What is there to take really?

    fcuk my slowness

    I have a reserved sign somewhere.
    I remember how funny it was going round with it on my head screaming about how reserved I was.

    I miss being so young and easily impressed.

    (Well spotted Clay)

    That's still wrong!!!

    "should have taught"...(as corrected above)

    ;)

    We should have a grammar forum....that would be fun, wouldn't it? Perhaps not.


    Anyway, once robbed a lollipop lady's lollipop from her hiding place....now that was funny!

    i stand corrected

    As I'm typing this I look at my poster "Phasers on funk" with a Spock DJ spinning the wax

    In my drunken student days I went through a bit of a phase doing this. Plenty of road works signs, pub signs and so on. Strangest one was probably part of the roof leading up the steps into the old fibbers beer garden which is now gone. For some reason I really wanted it. Always fun walking out of the pub with huge pieces of contraband. Know a bloke who in 2005 after Liverpool won the champions league took his bar stool home with him. We sat in the same seats the whole tournament that year and he reckoned it was the honourable stools that gave Liverpool the power to get 3 back against Milan in the second half. A couple of games in the PL we sat in different seats and the Pool lost :eek: . My favourite was a really cool ashtray from dakota. Had it for years afterwards.

    I've since grown out of it though. Stealing is wrong kids, no matter how funny it is.

    Have a number of gig posters for gigs I've been at, including an A0 sized one I've no wall space big enough to hang it on...

    erm "a friend of mine" robbed the door handle from Toast pub in rathmines, the one that looked like a bronze/silver handprint.

    student days i robbed a "pipe laying in progress" sign and of course hung it on the jacks door.. hilarious indeed.

    There is a minority chuch next to the Luas line in Ranelagh. They used to have a LED display sign on the front. It is reputed that a UCD student stole it on a drunken binge.

    Yes, he got a sign from God. :pac:

    at a gig in limerick one night, the band were selling signed posters, I just pulled one off the wall and asked them to sign it, saved myself a whole €3.:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 442 ✭✭Defenestrate


    There's a lot of thieving reds in after hours it seems, you wouldn't get that from the blue half of Merseyside. For shame... :p

    They deserve to be taken outside and publicly raped

    The words deserve and rape should never appear in the same sentence without bollix, chop and off.:mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,533 ✭✭✭SV


    I've always found the funnest thing to do is drop a few dissolvable laxatives into your pint...

    leave the pint down where it can't be disguised for anyone elses.. just make sure you don't drink it yourself. :)

    On Paddy's Day, we found a random sign in some alley so we decided to take all the letters. If you were at the ceili and saw all the random letters, that was us. We gave most of them away. I still have the C though.
